- both MainMenuActivity and RetroActivity are single instances now
- AKEYCODE_BACK gets eaten and onBackPressed in Java is triggered
- onBackPressed right now calls an instance of MainMenuActivity
(reuses the existing activity on the stack)
- User can switch back and forth between RetroActivity and MainMenuActivity
with AKEYCODE_BACK / Back button
- When a subsequent intent is launched after RetroActivity has already been
started up once, the pending intent gets passed to the existing RetroActivity
throug onNewIntent - in C land it will look every frame if an intent is pending - if it is, it will look up certain variables through JNI to launch a new game - or whatever it is that the intent wants to do
- With this we can now switch seamlessly between Android UI and RetroArch
itself.
- The UI is now mostly Fragment-centric (finally!)
- The Load Core, Load Game, Load Game (History) are now DialogFragments.
- The directory activities are killed off and consolidated into one fragment named DirectoryFragment.
DirectoryFragment is now a self-contained instantiable DirectoryFragment that can be instantiated anywhere by doing roughly the following.
DirectorFragment dFrag = DirectoryFragment.newInstance(/* Resource ID for a string title here*/);
dFrag.show(getFragmentManager(), "tag");
There are also other methods that were modified within the DirectoryFragment, such as addAllowedExt and disAllowedExt being changed to support a variable amount of arguments. This way, multiple calls of the same function aren't necessary in the case of adding multiple extensions, as well as supporting the case where only one extension is added.
DirectoryFragment also has a new interface added to it called OnDirectoryFragmentClosedListener. Say you have a DirectoryFragment instance, but want to use the selected item's path for something *after* the dialog has closed, with this interface, it is now possible. Just implement this interface within an Activity or Fragment, and then set the DirectoryFragment to use the listener through setOnDirectoryFragmentClosedListener() method.
Now what happens if this isn't set, wouldn't it be pointless to even use a DirectoryFragment in this case?
Not necessarily. What if you only wanted to save the selected item into the applications SharedPreferences?
This is a situation where it would be unnecessary to need that interface. So, to make a DirectoryFragment.java for the sole purpose of saving a selected directory/file path to the SharedPreferences, you would do this:
DirectoryFragment dFrag = DirectoryFragment.newInstance(/* Resource ID to a string title here*/);
dFrag.setPathSettingKey("key to store value in SharedPreferences at");
dFrag.show(getFragmentManager(), "tag");
Outside of these major changes, large portions of the code outside of this were simplified.
- Fixed off-by-one when using g_settings.input.icade_count to index in array of icade profiles. It has just been incremented...
- Added setting actual device names instead of generic "Broadcom Bluetooth HID" so the libretro menu shows it. Also added a bit of logging when detecting generic devices and selecting an icade profile.
- Fixed some wrong button assignments for iPega controller.
- Added a note about the dpad buttons not working, it's the next thing I want to fix.
android/phoenix/res/xml/prefs.xml:
- Fixed key names for icade profiles, input_autodetect_icade_profile_pad0 does not exist in the config as given in the root settings.c file, they start at 1.
breakage on PS3. Maister -you will need to redo shader_parse.c
again though - and this time I need to test it on PS3 to avoid
a regression that happened two pages prior again
